Just unsubbed from Inkarnate (Online map maker)
And Roll20
My Star Wars game is dead.
I am thinking about subbing to "Grammarly"
The freeware one offers helpful suggestions.
I'm pretty sure I'd use it. A lot.
But $30 a month is steep.
They'll do $12 a month if a I pay for a year at a time $144.
I just don't have $144 right now.

Re: Changes
Grammarly started out as a spell check add-on, then they added a grammar checker. Now it offers helpful suggestions about rewriting awkward sentences, which I like.
There are some jay-isms it doesn't like, but I think it would improve my readability some,
Oh, and it still spell checks and grammar checks pretty well.

I need to fight Weird Al. Hew does not like the Oxford comma.

I enjoyed those
Mhy favorite Weird Al

I read a Werid Al interview where he describes his songs.
He said Mark Motherbaugh, the leader of DEVO said he loved this song and knew exactly which song it's a parody of
Which is odd, because it's a style pastiche - Weird Al was doing the style of DEVO without satirizing any specific song. Weird Al reported being mystified.
This one is notable

BB King was a major Blues star for 50 years. This song made his top 10 list.
